SPOTLIGHT: Northern Cape health department still without a permanent head as suspended officials return

in the most important health administration post in the province is not helping, according to organised labour and opposition parties in the province.

“The fact that there is no permanent HOD in the department of health is putting a strain on healthcare services. The department is running around like a headless chicken … it is uncertain whether a plan – good or bad – will be implemented should a new head be appointed. According to Wynand Boshoff, provincial leader of the Freedom Front Plus, it is those who depend on public health services that suffer as a result of inadequate top management.

The DA’s Northern Cape spokesperson for health, Isak Fritz, agrees that the department is in critical need of stability, which can only come with stable management and the decision-making powers that come with a fixed appointment.
